This high-quality N-Type Male connector is specifically designed to provide a perfect, low-loss fit for medium-diameter coaxial cables such as the RF-5X, S-80, and RG59. Thanks to its threaded coupling mechanism, characteristic of N-type connectors, it delivers a robust, stable, and highly vibration-resistant connection, making it ideal for professional radio frequency (RF) applications across VHF, UHF, and microwave bands.
Manufactured with a heavy-duty nickel-plated brass body, this connector guarantees a long service life even in demanding outdoor environments. Internally, it features a PTFE (Teflon) dielectric insulator that withstands high temperatures during the soldering of the centre pin, which is gold-plated to ensure maximum electrical conductivity and prevent oxidation. Its mechanical design ensures firm retention of the compatible cables’ braided shield and outer jacket, guaranteeing optimal signal integrity and interference-free transmission.
Key Advantages
- Precise Mechanical Compatibility: Internally dimensioned to securely fit the outer diameter of RF-5X, S-80, and RG59 coaxial cables, ensuring a firm crimp or clamp of the outer shield.
- High-Fidelity Transmission: Gold-plated centre pin minimises contact resistance and maintains a stable VSWR across high frequencies.
- PTFE (Teflon) Insulator: High-grade dielectric material withstands soldering heat without deforming, maintaining constant impedance.
- Robust Construction: Nickel-plated brass metallic body offers excellent protection against corrosion and environmental wear.
- Secure Coupling: Standard N-type knurled threaded outer nut ensures a mechanical connection proofed against pulling and vibration.
Recommended Applications
Telecommunications and Antenna Infrastructure
Essential for terminating transmission lines connecting transceivers to base antennas in amateur radio stations, commercial services, and wireless data networks.
CCTV and 75/50 Ohm RF Systems
Its physical compatibility with RG59 (typically 75 ohms) and 50-ohm cables like the RF-5X makes it versatile for specific adaptations in RF monitoring and instrumentation.
